If elected Prince George’s County executive, Angela Alsobrooks proposes to install school-based counselors in every school, increase teacher pay and provide money to renovate some of the most underserved schools.

Prince George’s State’s Attorney Angela Alsobrooks has a large fundraising lead among Democrats vying to become the next county executive, according to campaign finance reports filed this week.

Alsobrooks netted more than $770,000 in donations in 2017. Coupled with her campaign accounts from previous years, that gives her nearly $1 million in the bank — nearly seven times as much as her nearest competitor.

A labor union that helped propel Donna F. Edwards to Congress years ago is throwing its support behind one of her Democratic primary rivals, State’s Attorney Angela Alsobrooks, in the race for Prince George’s county executive.

The field of candidates for the next Prince George’s County executive just expanded.

State’s Attorney Angela Alsobrooks announced on her Facebook page that she was running for the position with a post that said “I humbly ask for your support and trust again as I seek to serve as your next County Executive.”
